Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a support rod ball head connection structure. Background Art
[0002] Many electric strut nut rods on the market are directly connected to the ball seat by crimping. During the rework and repair process, the crimping structure must be destroyed before it can be disassembled and repaired, resulting in the inability to reuse the components (such as the nut rod in the screw assembly), causing a lot of parts waste.
[0003] Based on the above problems, we designed a strut ball head connection structure that is easy to repair and reduces parts waste. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] A strut ball head connection structure includes a nut rod and an upper sleeve coaxially sleeved on the outside of the nut rod, a spring sleeved inside the upper sleeve, and the spring coaxially arranged on the outside of the nut rod. When the upper sleeve moves downward, the spring is compressed, and the upper end of the nut rod is inserted into the outside of the upper sleeve. A rivet nut is installed on the upper end of the nut rod, and an upper ball seat is detachably matched through the rivet nut.
[0007] Preferably, a ball seat insert is embedded in the bottom of the upper ball seat, and the rivet nut is threadedly connected to the ball seat insert.
[0008] Preferably, an annular rivet groove is processed on the outer wall of the rivet nut, and the nut rod is inserted into the rivet groove after being compressed and deformed at the rivet groove. A threaded portion is processed on the upper end of the rivet nut, and the ball seat insert is connected through the threaded portion.
[0009] Preferably, an insertion portion is provided at the bottom of the upper ball seat, a stepped hole is processed at the upper end of the upper sleeve, the upper ball seat is limited on the stepped surface of the stepped hole, and the insertion portion is inserted into the upper sleeve through the stepped hole.
[0010] Preferably, the outer diameter of the insertion portion is smaller than the inner diameter of the spring.
[0011] Preferably, the length of the threaded portion is less than the depth of the ball seat insert.
[0012] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0013] The device adopts a split structure, the nut rod and the rivet nut are riveted and fixed, while the rivet nut and the upper ball seat are detachable structures. When repair is required, it is only necessary to move the upper jacket downward to expose the upper ball seat upward, which is convenient for overall dismantling, reduces the scrap rate of parts, and allows most parts to be reused.
